4th Sunday of Easter, 4-25-2021

Here are the links for Sunday:

 

Dearest Community Members,

Happy Saturday Evening.  I am disappointed to tell you that we have not been able to put together a live stream for tomorrow's Mass.

Becky has worked tirelessly on this project and Mike Moran has also put in many hours on the project.  As of now we are hoping to get a You Tube presentation together of the Mass tomorrow at 9:30 at Legacy.  If we succeed we will put it out on the Blog tomorrow and you should be able to click on the link and see a presentation of the Mass.  We hope to put the link in around noon.  You will not get an email about the Blog until Monday BUT if you go to www.johnstackministries.com about 1:00 it should be out there

In the meantime you have the readings and John Cade's excellent homily so that you can reflect as a family on what you read.

 

Have a peaceful and healthy week.

 

 

Nehemiah 8:   Today is holy to the Lord your God.

1 Corinthians 12:   As a body is one though it has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, are one body, so also Christ.

Luke 1:  Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.

 

 

 

Looking and feeling better.

 

Thanks……

Rosemary's Blessing:  

Oh God of humor enable us to laugh at your mischievous plans. 

Life can become serious during these cold winter months, and our hearts can become heavy and burdened with responsibilities, decisions and trying to keep everyone happy. 

Let us look for the funny things that happen, the unexpected surprise that catches us off-guard, along with the incongruences that we encounter. 

Smile, snicker, giggle, give a belly laugh, and spontaneously guffaw. 

You will be amazed at how God works through laughter.

Sr. Mary Elizabeth Schweiger

 

Numbers 6:  The Lord bless you and keep you! The Lord let his face shine upon you, and be gracious to you! The Lord look upon you kindly and give you peace!  

Galatians 4:  Abba,  Father!

Luke 2:  And Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.

Rosemary's Blessing:  

A Family Blessing

 

Lord of all,

Bless our families,

Be they formed by blood or by circumstance,

Make them holy.

May we find you in our relationships.

In our marriages, in our families,

In our households, in our communities,

In our  global  humanity.

May we look across all that divides us

And see family,

And embrace as a family does.

And love as a family ought to.

For where two or three gather in your name,

There you are in the midst.

There indeed are you,

The one for whom we long so deeply.

Amen.

Acts of the Apostles 2:  And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim.

1 Corinthians 12:  There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there  are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone.

John 20:  Peace be with you.  As the Father has sent me, so I send you.

           

                 

 

 

Thanks…
